Remember when I mentioned The Grey Album, the samizdat remix disc that merges the Beatles’ beats with Jay-Z’s words? The record companies involved (or more precisely, the record companies who were not involved) have been trying to shut down distribution. In response, for today only, you can download the full album via greytuesday.org.

Some of the download sites are already broken; for what it’s worth, I just downloaded my copy from this site.

Likewise.
I even went as far as making my site grey.
What fun!
I can't wait to tell my kids one day of how daddy participated in an internet sit-in of sorts.
